Briefly:

India is a country with 18 officially recognized languages each being
spoken by millions of people. Each language of it need unique
representation in "Keyboard Layout" of "Regional & Language  - System
Settings"

Steps to notice the problem:

1) Kubuntu Feisty (Upgrade from Kubuntu Edgy)
2) KMenu --> System Settings --> Regional & Language --> Keyboard Layout
3) Under Available Layouts --> India 

Now the problem is one cannot add the Indian Languages separately. Few
Indian Languages are Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada each being
millions of people.

The only option available is choose India Add to Active Layouts & Choose
the Layout variant.

Want to add another language, again choose India Add to Active Layouts &
Choose the Layout variant.

Now in the Layout variant field all languages of India are messed up and
a beginner will get confused easily as to choose which layout for his
home language.

Now linguistic representation need to be given here.

This need to be and I myself is willing to take up the responsibility. I
am looking forward to a mentor.
